Clutch slip
Lobo:
...there’s been past threads commenting on how modern synthetic oils can promote clutch slip (dependant upon the additives); are you using good old cheap mineral oil? (tho’ if it’s slipping in 3rd perhaps the issue is indeed more significant than oil...)
Anyways, Google it... the jury seems to be out on this one...

Thanks Lobo,
Yes mineral oil is what’s in there.
Ill have a google this morning

Hi All,
I’ve taken the clutch out the friction plates all measure around 2.40 to 2.70 ish mm
Back friction plate in the picture below looks
Mullered.
The pressure plate also has been broken, it had been epoxy resined which was holding, am I ok to weld the broken tab back on or should it i get a new one?
Also do I have to remove the inner clutch basket to fit new clutch plates or can just assemble them into the basket in situ on the bike?
Thanks for any help

Definitely get a new / replacement clutch lifter plate. Those corners snap off for fun at the best of times. If you can't find a new one to buy, we have loads of good used ones here.

Mike Smith at 'good-stuff' (he is a dormant forum member I think) does this upgraded plate he uses for his racer - https://good-bits.co.uk/product/cb750-sohc-clutch-actuating-hub/
